Looking good mate, it's a joy to watch and see how things progress.
Small update of what I've been sorting this week.
Wanted to get all the battery tray out where it had been previously plated over with a replacement pannel.
The top inch of the bulkhead on the drivers side was rotten so chopped that out along with all the other parts.

Wanted to keep the drain hole working, so cut the gully bit out of the pannel I had chopped out, and welded that in along with a 2mm plate behind the turret.

Then I cut out pieces of 2mm sheet to weld either side of the gully part, and welded them in place.

Next was to sort the main plate, again out of 2mm steel to give the whole area some strength. Cut the hole out for the corsa pedal to go through.

Next Up, I got Iit all in place and then decided to weld the corsa servo mounting plate in place so that it is all rigid.

Then mounted up the servo ready to sort the pedal out.

Pedal shortened and slightly straightened.

Next Up I weleded in a small bracket to mount a corsa wiper motor. Just need to modify this to single...
Well thats it for now, shall postmore up soon.
How I wish I could get a shell in my garage to do things properly! That method of sorting out the front crossmember is the future for any conversion I think.
Isnt clearance going to be a problem with the servo and m/c were it is now??
Remember seein that on ebay..
